nanowrimo day 2
so the last time i did nanowrimo was... a considerable time ago, and i went looking for the tools i used last time. one of them was 'write or die', a little web thing that gives you a text field and dings and turns red if you don't keep typing more-or-less continuously. a very simple, basic thing that looked like this when i used it last. meanwhile, the 'modern' version of it is this over-designed mess.
thankfully the archive.org version still mostly works.
wrote another 2k words today (well, 1995 words). this puts me at 4031 words total, or +697 ahead of pace. finished that djen fisting scene and wrote most of the opening paths the jinn survey caves sequence. i also put in some very basic code for handling conversation with the various gheist characters, since it was bothering me that all the human characters got talk options but nobody else did. that's gonna be weird to try to work into the nanowrimo process -- each individual talk option is maybe a paragraph, and they're nearly all backstory/worldbuilding exposition, so they're not really things i could write in a single timed block the way i've been writing the sex scenes. we'll see how that goes.
